    A Lifecycle Milestone Review is held at the conclusion of each phase to determine, following the completion of the
    final iteration of the phase, whether the project should be allowed to proceed to the next phase. It marks a point at
    which management and technical expectations should be resynchronized, but the issues to be considered should relate
    mainly to the management of the project - major technical issues should have been resolved with the final iteration (of
    the phase), and in the subsequent <a class="elementLinkWithType" href="./../../rup/tasks/prepare_for_phase_closeout_17FE85E9.html" guid="{F479892D-8ACC-46BD-82C4-24BBF11E2502}">Task: Prepare for Phase Close-Out</a>.

        has the project made adequate progress (in delivering capability, quality and planned work products) across the

        is the project's risk profile acceptable to enter the next phase?

    <li>
        is the project's scope well-understood and acceptable to all stakeholders?

    <li>
        are the project's baselines in a known state according to configuration audits?

    The Lifecycle Milestone Review meeting is a meeting between a customer representative(s), the project's management team
    (the project manager, plus the team leads for the various functional areas of the project team), and the Project Review
    Authority.
</p>
<p>
    Once the attendees of the meeting have been identified, set a date/time for the meeting to take place. It is important
    that sufficient lead time is allowed for the participants to review the materials that will be used as the basis for
    the approval decision.

    During the meeting, the attendees will be mainly concerned with the Status Assessment and the Business Case. See the <a href="#Issues for Consideration">Issues for Consideration.</a>

<p>
    At the end of the meeting, the reviewers should make the decision to approve or not. If the remaining issues are few
    and relatively minor, the customer may decide to accept the product conditionally upon certain corrective actions being
    taken. In this situation the Project Manager may choose to initiate a new iteration to deal with the issues arising,
    depending on their significance, or simply deal with issues as an extension of the final iteration, the difference
    being in the amount of planning needed. If the results of the phase are found to be unacceptable, the Project Manager
    may be obliged to initiate another iteration, or perhaps the resolution of the problem is taken out of the Project
    Manager's hands, and left to the customer and the Project Review Authority.

    The result of the Lifecycle Milestone Review Meeting can be one of the following:

    At the end of the meeting, a Review Record is completed, capturing any important discussions or action items, and
    recording the results of the Lifecycle Milestone Review. If the result was "not accepted", a follow-up review should be
    tentatively scheduled - if the project is allowed to continue. A firmer date will be set following the planning for the
    additional iteration.
